Ah hah... thought I've disappeared again right? Hahaha...
So where did I left off? OH! Wednesday eh? Today's already Thu, how time flies... Yesterday was the most memorable day of my life. I shall reveal more when the time comes or if it's even necessary. I have promised not to say a single word about it until the time is right and a promise is a promise and I shall stick to it.
So anyway, it was my mid-year review yesterday with Elaine and it was good. I'm glad that all went well and the entire session lasted for almost 1 and a half hours. It felt like a very personal review session and I'm very grateful for the boss I have. From the bottom of my heart, I really meant what I said. Not only does she give appropriate guidance when required, she also checks back to ensure you understood her and there will also be times when things get more personal like family related stuff etc. There are, of course, times when the discussion on work gets to us but I'm proud to say that I've never ever let that affect me in any way. That I got to say, I learnt from my Mama! Hahaha. "Leave work at the door as soon as you step out. Don't bring it out/home with you and have it affect you the rest of the day." Words from the wise! Hahaha. And up till now, I still stick by it and it has brought me where I am today. Positivity when faced with troubles is another factor that most people find hard to find. Especially when they're faced with shitty people and work. And when it's a Monday, they blame it on Monday Blues. Like what has Monday got to do with anything?? Yes I accept the fact that the weekend just passed... so?? I'm sure you should be well rested to kick off the week until the next Friday when you can officially scream that the weekends are here AGAIN!!! Come on people, positivity at work! You can do it. Everyday is a same day to me. It doesn't mean that you should get more shit on Monday or for that matter, any other day of the week. It's all about your working style, how efficient you are, what kind of approach you take when solving issues etc. And if you realised whatever I just said, it's all about POSITIVITY!!
Had an awesome dinner with Mama yesterday, Naan and Chicken Dum Briyani. Didn't know that Little India Arcade had so many stores that sells really beautiful stuff! I was really amazed at the layout of how the shops and little stores were. Too bad I didn't take pictures... shucks! But it was really so full of culture. A must visit again next time. Shall try their henna. Saw some tourists walk out of that area with really nice works. I'm sure it costs quite a bit cos it's still a tourist attraction after all. Shall try to see if there're 'local prices'. HAHAHA. Mama said that I'd look silly if I asked about it. But if you don't ask, you won't get! Tio bo?
Another thing that I've decided to embark on doing is some reviews. I used to them very often. With pictures, write ups etc. But as time goes by, you don't have time to do all that anymore. Especially when you lost interest. But I'm back to blog! And I'm definitely psyched about doing reviews cos not only does it stay in my blog for future references, if there're people who wanna do some research on either a place, food, services etc, they will be able to read a frank comment about it/them from me. I'll definitely not give chance when it comes to reviews. Cos I don't appreciate if the reviews were based on what people PAY you and you just write unreal crap all over your blog just to attract readership and in the end, your readers don't gain anything from it. So yeah, I shall see how I can embark on that, either really immersing myself with re-using my laptop to load those pictures, or blogging from my phone (which means that the photos are unedited), or simply just doing those reviews on weekends when I'm free. So we shall see. I still do like the 'blogging from phone' idea though. Oh well...
Other than all the above, was my most DEPRESSING moment on Tuesday! Why?? Because of Tomb Raider on PS4, which I raved so much only to have it hang on me at a point in the game. After reading reviews about it and that everyone else faced the same thing, I was just so bothered cos I really took a lot of effort to get to where I am now. I didn't know that I NEEDED to save the games periodically into the 3 different save slots of the game so that the programming wouldn't cause trouble. And I'm sure like most players, you'll only research about things like these when it happened. Argh!! Pissed off man... but seriously, I can't do anything for now until Sony does a patch or something. Other than that, to restart the entire game which I'm definitely not gonna do. I really came so far! Stiff neck and all, but if the patch really takes a long time, then I really have no choice! Waaaahhhh... goddamnit.
For now, cheers!
